Staying at Barbugli is a real pleasure. It was great to be welcomed each day by four enthusiastic dogs. Elena is a friendly host and knows a lot activities to do in the neighbourhood. The environment is nice and green and views are stunning on this height (780 m). The house is spacious and lovely decorated and fully equiped with all necessary things and if you miss something, just ask Elena. There is a lot you can do during your stay here. F.i. Visiting the castle Gropparello, have a swim in Sassi Neri (river), go to Piacenza, Grazzano Visconti, Castell'arquato or even Parma to buy some nice prosciutto di Parma. And if you don't want to do a thing, just relax, read a book on the terrace in front of the house or next the swimmingpool. Highly recommended!

Very special place - happily we stayed long enough to discover the unique location and values of Barbugli. We really enjoyed silence and wilderness of Apennines together with historical richness of Via Francigena.

Ewa2016-08-28T00:00:00Z

We had a wonderful stay at Elenas place. Everything shown on the pictures is even nicer in reality. We felt absolutely welcome, Elena was always around when needed and gave us numerous tips what to do in the neighborhood. Too bad that we've only booked for two nights. On Saturday night friends of Elena came over and we had a lot of pleasure listening to live guitar music and songs. The cottage is very special with unique decorations, while clean and comfortable to live in. Barbugli, an ensemble of maybe 5-6 houses (they are partly merged thus difficult to count) feels like an enchanted little mountain village. We definitely plan to come back one day - just with some more time to spend in gorgeous Barbugli.

Karsten2016-07-12T00:00:00Z

We traveled with our 2 children from 5 and 2 years. We all liked the place and the people very much! Also Elenz was always there to help if necessary. It is a lovely place to enjoy nature ! Thanks for your hospitality ! Johan, Lies, Janne and Jule

Johan2016-07-26T00:00:00Z

Elena was a wonderful host. She made us feel so comfortable. I cannot say enough good things about her. The cottage was absolutely beautiful in a peaceful, gorgeous location. We picked this for our first stop because we wanted to unwind, and it was perfect. To hear the quiet, see a starry night, have a fire in the stove equals paradise to me. Elena gave us delicious cherry preserves as a gift when we left. The dogs, horses and donkeys were all so nice as well!

Eric2015-09-28T00:00:00Z

It 'was really a wonderful experience staying at Barbugli. The place is wonderful for those who love nature but also the company of Elena and Mauro makes the stay even more enjoyable. They know exactly make you feel at home. Are two special people who give so much to each other. The house is a love ... we would definitely return soon!

geraldine2015-06-03T00:00:00Z

Once we found the place (tucked away 700+mt high up in the mountains), everything was surreal. The cottage was lovlier in real life, with sky lights to light the cottage in the day and to catch shooting stars in the night. The kitchen was small but well-equipped, and the amenties like hot shower and heater were modern. Outside the cottage, the panoramic view of the valley was breathtaking. Elena has put together this comprehensive booklet of the places of interest around the area, and we simply followed it during our stay. We explored Bobbio, went to the cascades, hiked through the woods. If you want a quiet countryside retreat, this place is for you. We will love to come back someday.

Yvonne2016-09-26T00:00:00Z

We had such a wonderful time at Elenas place in the mountains. Her hospitality is fanstastic - we felt very much at home in the beautiful house. The house is spacious, cosy and so nice. The little "farm" is pleasant with beautiful views and nice paths. Very nice with the dogs and the horses and donkey that walk around in the evening. Elena was very helpful when we had a flat tire - it would have been very difficult to sort it out without an italian speaking person.

Our house is located in a very small village with only 7 or 8 houses. So it is perfect if you look for quiteness and rest.

Enea was very friendly and helpful ; his cottage , and the valley in which it is located, corresponded perfectly to what he described.... fresh greenness of May. Splendid view to valley, presence of nature, hammock and lily perfume, meals in the garden. Calm. One can walk from the spot, as very seldom any car passed. Marked walking trails are also easily accessible. Necessary things for cooking are there, hot water functions nicely.

roberto2013-05-12T00:00:00Z

Our host greeted us in a pleasant way open. Made us woodburning house well explained and demonstrated. As a welcome gesture found on the table fine delicacies. The description of the house as a villa fit well, it is in a beautiful old village in the countryside. The house is very easy from the comfort of her, but cozy as it becomes heated. However, the stove worked fine, plenty of wood was available. The garden with magnificent views is suited very picturesque and sunny for many leisure hours. The valley (away from tourism) was a discovery of a special kind, unique in its simplicity and peace. Neighbors in April very few in the small hamlet, but whoever tried to contact can be found where. Its people are extremely gracious, sometimes. very interesting and communicative !! Our special tip: hiking and cycling tours in the area are very attractive, thanks little traffic, Enea has a map in the house: Alto Appennino Piacentino.

René2015-04-15T00:00:00Z

The Tessa and Pierre house is a little gem located in a charming area. Me, my wife and two of our friends we spent New Year's week in the green, in the peace and total tranquility. Cleaning the house is great, as the pellet stove that provides adequate heating even in January. Hot water is always available as well as a kitchen with a gas stove. Also the house is Pet Friendly, no small feat for those who love animals and nature.

Fabio2017-01-03T00:00:00Z

Enea is a nice guy and amenable, and his home a small piece of paradise, surrounded by greenery and in a cosmic silence! Never seen so many stars in the sky !!! a real collection of VHS cassettes and take you to your quato wonderful stay in the cottage, just as he did with me and my future wife Carolina! wish him and recommend it to everyone! if you need to "unplug" from work and from the problems and stresses of everyday life ... THIS MUST BE THE PLACE! Enea thanks!

Federico2014-09-23T00:00:00Z

We felt very welcome in the house of Tessa and Pierre. We had many a pleasant and extensive e-mail contact. The house is small but equipped with many comforts. The large garden offers sun and shade and a beautiful view. Dossa is a small, very Italian hamlet. Too bad that we ourselves do not speak Italian, because the neighbors wanted to have a chat with us. If you're looking for a nice, quiet spot in a traditional village, this is a fantastic place!

Hannie2016-08-14T00:00:00Z

We had a very pleasant time in the house, in a nice oasis of greenery and calm. Enea to thank you and the people of the hamlet Dosso.

Hélène2015-07-21T00:00:00Z

Enea was waiting for us when we arrived after a tiring journey in the evening in a village near the property. He drove the last kilometer before us to show us to be fairly remote cottage in the Apennines the way. We were surprised with fresh fruit, beer, wine and basic necessities for breakfast the next day. Arrived there A pleasant acquaintance. The cottage is exactly like the pictures and it is spacious enough for four people. The kitchen is small (washing recommended daily), but everything to cook is present. Also nice that many basic ingredients such as salt, oil, pepper and oregano stand there and you can use it. Enea Handy for a holiday with small children is that there is a washing machine, and that the garden is fenced (be careful with the stairs). It really feels like a home, more than a holiday. It also comes through the device with stuff Enea has collected during his travels his collection cassettes and video tapes from the eighties and nineties and the pictures on the wall. The home of nearly 250 years from making it a truly distinctive experience. In the evening it's really quiet in Dosso, the tiny village where the house stands. You can sleep well here and if it is clearly enjoying the many stars. From the house you may well cycling or walking through the area. In Farini is pleasant to swim in a pool in the river. Enea was during our stayed always available to answer questions. He really did his best to his house to feel at home. Thanks. I guess its hospitality highly.

NOTE
In the past we have had guests complaining about spider webs and sometimes finding small insects in their room. We do our best to keep all the rooms exceptionally clean and tidy. La Cenerara, however, is completely surrounded by greenery, flowers, plants, and all these are part of the insects habitat. This makes it very hard to guarantee the same level of sterilisation that people are used to in urban areas.
We believe in not poisoning/destroying the ecosystem and for the same reason we usually dislike spraying insect killer everywhere, as some guests have asked us to do in the past.
Spring and summer are a joy for nature, and insects are part of that world as well.

Five hundred words are not enough to describe LaCenerara. This is not an AirBNB location; it’s an oasis of beauty, a true resort. Isabella and her family were some of the most hospitable and friendly people we met during our two weeks in the area. We always felt welcomed and thanks to two of the best dogs, Brando and Tilla, we always felt safe. Isabella and her family greeted us with warm smiles, directions, and restaurant recommendations, wine, home picked fruits and warm appetizers. The bed and logging were clean, VERY spacious, and smelled of fresh herbs and air. It truly is the countryside of Italy. So yes, you’ll see some flies and bugs, but not inside unless you leave the windows open too long. Whoops. My only suggestions would be some guest robes and a portable fan, and that’s just us being spoiled Americans and the only things we’d change. It’s best to find the location during the day but once you do, you can’t really get lost and if you do there are plenty of locals who know about LaCenerara. They say some of the best places are the ones hard to find, this is that kind of place. We will definitely be back and hope to spread the word about this wonderful location. Thank you Isabella and family! With love and respect! – The Robinsons

We really enjoyed our stay at Stefania's (who was very hospitable) country house in the Piacenza Hills. The quitness and the view were great. The nice decorated house is also very nice for children, they can either play in the house or in the large garden. There is a swing outside and also a hammock and a treehouse. Every day we ate outside, in the shadow or in the sun. The tomatoes, that grow in the garden are delicious. It is a good place from which you can visit the nice cities of Piacenza and Parma (1 hour drive). And many castles in the surroundings. At Rustigazzo you can taste the Italian way of life!

The large outdoor area is ideal for those who spend time outdoors. the breakfast is hearty and delicious, lunch, equally rich and very good (thanks Christian for spätzle vegetarians!). Finally, last but not least, Adelanna is really a fantastic host, dedicated to his passions and his projects, affectionate, humorous, sensitive - just see how love takes care of his animals. recommended for those who want to detach a little 'plug from the stress and noise of the city. more than ideal for lovers of nature and animals.

Thanks to Federico for letting us stay in his beautiful home in Mezzano Scotti! We had a perfect family holiday. Federico well introduced us to all technical features of the house and the swimming pool. Everything we found was like in the pictures. We loved the cool dining place outside the house and of course the swimming pool (and the espresso in the local bar!). Don't miss beautifuly restored Bobbio in 5km distance.

Federico pleasant stay. House and stunning pool. We took all our meals in the lean-to. Evenings there were more than pleasant.

We really enjoyed our stay in Mazzano Scotti. The house is perfect for a relaxing and quiet vacation with the family. It has been recently renovated with care and is very stylish! Our kids loved the pool! The patio is great to sit and chill all day! The village is very small but has whatever you need during your stay. The restaurant just a few minutes by walk serves good food. There is also a small grocery just around the corner and for bigger shopping Bibbio is just 5 minutes away by car. Federico is a very nice person and his sister Alessandra lives just next door and is always there to help. We hope to spend another vacation there some time.

Alessandra and Federico are two very kind and attentive. The reception was perfect, the grand house and a perfect little pool to cool off. The region is very rich. We were able to move in different places like Genoa, Parma, Portofino and even other small very beautiful villages. It was a pleasure to come to rest at home! See you soon, Thomas

The property is very large with a nice swimming pool, there is a lot of outdoor space and it is completely private for guest use only. Location wise, if you are flying into Italy, you can access this via Milan or Genoa. If you want an easy drive then Milan is the better option, however the drive from Genoa is much more scenic and beautiful. My advice-if arriving late night, then definitely fly into Milan as the roads from Genoa can be a little daunting during the night as there is no lighting, if you are coming in the day time then definitely fly into Genoa and experience the mountain drive. In the village itself there is only 1 restaurant which is relatively inexpensive, e.g. a margarita pizza was 4 euros. However overall the food was passable if you are hungry, otherwise its wasn't that great. Instead we ended up driving 10 minutes away to a large village called Bobbio, where you had supermarkets and restaurants. We frequented here daily as it has everything that you need with a wider choice of food and drink. I think it was a Sunday where we went to an open market where you can buy all sorts of fresh fruit, veg, meats and cheese. This was great. We did a day trip to Milan from here which was pretty easy, took around 1 hour 45 minutes - 2 hours one way. The house itself has amazing views from the living area upstairs of the mountains and we woke up every morning to a fantastic view. Cannot fault it. The air feels extremely clean and fresh. We liaised primarily with Fernando's sister, Allessandra, she was a delight and very helpful. Overall we would return here for a quiet getaway. It's very peaceful and Federico and his sister made us feel very welcome.

Really beautiful house, exactly as described on Airbnb. The covered "barn" is absolutely gorgeous and allowed us to live outside during our entire stay. Federico's sister made us feel welcome upon arrival. The house is located in a tiny little village, you absolutely need a car to get around. The surroundings are great and not touristy at all.
